Gan Ping was a well-known singer in the 1990s. He sang many familiar songs such as "Wet Heart", "The One Who Loves You", "Kiss the Mermaid", "Big Brother, How Are You", etc. In 2004, Gan Ping disappeared from public view after marrying the famous football player Li Bing. Now more than 10 years have passed, how is Gan Ping's living situation?
Gan Ping was born in Xiangyin County, Hunan Province in 1970. After graduating from the Provincial Art School, he was assigned to the Hunan Huagu Opera Theater. In 1994, Gan Ping won the third prize in the National Young Singer Television Grand Prix and later joined the Beijing Hai Zheng Song and Dance Ensemble.
Gan Ping and Li Bing met in 1996 when they were invited by an advertising company to shoot a Coke commercial. Because they wanted to shoot the same scene, Gan Ping and Li Bing were too different in height, so the director found two wooden boxes for her.
After the commercial ended, Gan Ping learned that the tall, dark man who was partnering with him was Li Bing, China's first football player. However, since then, there has been no contact between them and no contact information has been left.
In 1997, Gan Ping flew to Chengdu. As soon as she sat down on the plane, she felt that the man next to her looked familiar. It occurred to her that this tall man had filmed a commercial with her. She smiled and said to Li Bing: "What a coincidence! When I met you, were you also going to Chengdu for business?" Seeing that it was Gan Ping, Li Bing hurriedly said: "It's not to do business, but to go home."
Li Bing told Gan Ping that he settled in Chengdu and his wife used to be a flight attendant and now works in Chengdu. He also said that he had heard Gan Ping sing "Brother, How Are You" very early on, and he was very impressed. Gan Ping told Li Bing that she went to Chengdu this time to visit a little girl named Xiao Jing. A few years ago, she adopted a child whose family suffered misfortune. The mother was terminally ill and the father lost his job. In addition to supporting her family, she also takes time out to visit Xiaojing and take care of her for a few days every month. Li Bing was moved by Gan Ping's love.
After that, the two met many times in the star football team and became familiar with each other. In 2001, Li Bing invited Gan Ping to a dance, but Gan Ping went with another girlfriend. After watching the game, Li Bing invited them to dinner. Gan Ping's girlfriend had to leave early for something. Gan Ping didn't want to be alone with a man. After all, he is a public figure and is afraid of misunderstanding. When she held her girlfriend's hand and said goodbye, Li Bing said: "Gan Ping, why do you look down on people so much? I invite you to dinner and refuse." The girlfriend said, "Gan Ping, just stay." If you are afraid of being recognized, find a remote place to eat. Later, Gan Ping proposed to have dinner at a small restaurant in Xizhimen, and Li Bing agreed.
After the two sat down in a corner of the hotel, Gan Ping ordered a few light dishes and Li Bing ordered two bottles of beer. After drinking two bottles of beer, Li Bing's words increased. Gan Ping asked Li Bing with concern, have you returned to your hometown in Chengdu recently? Li Bing shook his head. Gan Ping said, you should go back to see your wife often. Li Bing suddenly jumped out: "I'm divorced." Gan Ping was startled and laughed: "Are you kidding me!"
Li Bing said: "I'm really divorced. I don't want to tell you, but You are my good friend. It doesn't hurt to tell you." She asked inexplicably: "You seem to have been married for a few years, why did you leave? Li Bing said: "Our life is fluctuating, and some conflicts, such as the separation between the two places, eventually led to the breakup. The child was awarded to the mother, and the house in Chengdu was also given to her." Gan Ping comforted Li Bing: You will definitely find another one A like-minded wife. Wish you all the best.
One weekend, Li Bing invited Gan Ping to play golf. Gan Ping asked: "Who else want to participate?" Li Bing said: "There is no one else in the suburbs, only you and me." Gan Ping refused: "It's not that I don't want to go, but I will play with you alone, which will cause confusion." There is a lot of suspicion, which is not good for you and me." Li Bing quickly said: "I'm sorry, I didn't consider this." In 2002, Li Bing left the national team. When he left Beijing, he said goodbye to some old friends. At the farewell party, he said to Gan Ping: "Sister Little Mermaid, when you go to Chengdu in the future, don't forget to visit your old brother."
Soon, Gan Ping went to Chengdu to visit his "adopted daughter" Xiao quiet. After arriving in Chengdu, she called her old friend Li Bing who came to see her. In the afternoon, Gan Ping went to visit Xiaojing with a large bag of newly bought clothes and school supplies, and Li Bing took the initiative to accompany Gan Ping. In Xiaojing's home, Gan Ping takes care of the children like a mother and takes care of the housework like a master. Li Bing looked very moved. Before leaving, he told Gan Ping that you must be a good wife and mother in the future. Gan Ping's face was full of appreciation.
Not long after Gan Ping returned to Beijing, Li Bing called her and expressed his goodwill towards Gan Ping. Gan Ping said with a smile, "Don't be ridiculous." We can only be good friends, not lovers.
In September 2002, Li Bing went to Beijing to do business and ran a sporting goods business with his friends. After settling in Beijing, he called Gan Ping and she invited Li Bing to dinner. During the dinner, Li Bing expressed his good impression of Gan Ping. Gan Ping said, can you not say this when we are together?
In fact, Li Bing has long been in love with Gan Ping for her talent, kindness, and gentleness. Gan Ping's rejection not only did not scare him, but inspired his persistence and courage as a man. Under Li Bing's pursuit, Gan Ping accepted his feelings.
They keep a low profile to avoid media scrutiny. Even in public, they kept their distance, so their romance was never revealed by the media.
Famous singer Gan Ping: Restore the truth of the "forced marriage" incident
Gan Ping is Li Bing's good helper in business. He won Li Bing the agency rights for a Singaporean brand in China and asked Li Bing to formally establish a company in Beijing. Gan Ping's investment in Li Bing's business activities has been questioned by many people. In 2004, they went to Guangzhou to attend a business event. In the euphemism of some friends, Gan Ping admitted his relationship with Li Bing.
Soon, media outlets of all sizes in Guangzhou used the headline "Gan Ping generously admits his love affair with Li Bing", greatly exaggerating their relationship. Ganping doesn't care about media coverage. Later, after the national media and some websites reported it, the whole incident changed. Some people confuse Li Bing's divorce with today's "Love between Li and Gan" to express suspicion. As a result, some media insisted that Li Bing's divorce from his ex-wife was related to Gan Ping, and that Gan Ping must have had a third party intervene. Then Gan Ping's fans also called and accused Gan Ping of being immoral and unflattering.
The gossip was overwhelming, and Gan Ping didn’t know how to face it for a while. She just kept explaining to reporters on the phone: "I fell in love with Li Bing two years after his divorce. How could it be a third party?" But the worse it got. Ganping was in pain and his life was greatly affected. Even if he sings on stage, he can't sing.
However, the media did not give up the theme of "Li Gan is in love". Whenever Gan Ping appears in public, people ask about her and Li Bing. Later, Gan Ping didn't dare to go out at all. Especially the fans' accusations made Ganping lose to the audience, and she couldn't bear the pressure from the outside world. After a period of consideration, Gan Ping decided to end the relationship and clear her name.
Gan Ping and Li Bing broke up. Although Li Bing was in pain, considering that Gan Ping has always enjoyed a good reputation in the entertainment industry, Li Bing now decided to respect Gan Ping's opinion because he made her so infamous. This is how relationships end.
After the breakup, Gan Ping didn't want to participate in the show and lay at home every day suffering from gossip. Li Bing couldn't bear to work. He makes people drink every day and is too lazy to do business. In order to get rid of this string of love, Gan Ping went out to travel. During her travels, she often received text messages of blessing from Li Bing, but she always deleted them quickly.
One day, Li Bing came to Gan Ping's residence and Gan Ping opened the door. Li Bing looked at Gan Ping affectionately and said nothing. Suddenly, he held Gan Ping in his arms and said: "Let's not torture each other anymore. No matter how much pressure there is from the outside world, as long as we love each other, why care about what others say?"
Li Bing's persistence and The strength infected Gan Ping, and she nestled against Li Bing's chest. She suddenly felt that with this breast as her support, she could not bear any storm. Li Bing said: "Let's get married.". It takes courage to get married on the cusp of the storm, but Li Bing's love is strength, and Gan Ping agreed.
In February 2004, Gan Ping married Li Bing. In order not to attract the attention of the outside world and the media, they did not invite friends, only family members to get together and have a meal. The media quickly caught on to the fact that Li Bing and Gan Ping were getting married. As a result, a Nanjing media reported on their romance with the title "Li Bing's divorce was due to Gan Ping's intervention." The article also said that all the facts were told by a close friend of Li Bing in Chengdu: As early as 1994, when Gan Ping and Li Bing were filming a commercial in Beijing, Li Bing was working as an assistant coach for the national team and enjoyed the treatment of one person and one room. People meet secretly. Later, Gan Ping filed for divorce from Li Bing and married her, but Li Bing never agreed to marry Gan Ping.
Faced with the media’s distorted facts, Li Bingbing smiled and said: "I have never been an assistant coach of the national team, and I have never lived in a house. It is simply nonsense.".
Gan Ping and Li Bing couldn't stand this malicious hype and wanted to take up legal weapons to protect their rights and seek justice for themselves. They also invite lawyers and consult on relevant legal issues. Later, friends reminded them: During the lawsuit, you were the target of national media hype. The two had no choice but to give up.
Gan Ping and Li Bing decided to deal with the hype with silence, and Li Bing decided to study in the UK for a year to stay away from the wrong place. Li Bing went to England and Gan Ping lived in seclusion. The hype has finally died down. At the end of 2004, their daughter Li Zixuan was born. After becoming a mother, Gan Ping focused on her family and her daughter and devoted herself to being a good wife and mother.
After his daughter grew up, Gan Ping was freed from the heavy housework. In addition to singing, doing volunteer work, and engaging in charity activities, she also often "shocks" and participates in film and television dramas such as "Tongbai Heroes" and "Heart is Heaven". Li Bing has been coaching at the club and successfully brought the Sichuan Annapurna team into the National Football League and won 15 consecutive games.
Over the years, Gan Ping fell into silence. But she didn't feel lost. She has a family, a husband and a daughter. She felt her life was complete and happy.
In February 2020, Gan Ping and Li Bing had been married for 16 years and both reached middle age. When they came out of the wind and rain, they knew how to cherish and help each other, and lived an ordinary and happy life.
